What a sweet idea. I was reading on another forum about this. I don't know if I'm allowed to post the link, but here it is:

What about thieves breaking in to try and steal money that could be in the machine?

The machines lock. I don't think they would try to break in to steal a few quarters if they are inside your house.

Do you really think safes provide much fire protection?

A little protection is better than no protection don't you think?

Maybe you're right, String Music. The machines in public hold several hundred dollars at a time. Of course they probably wouldn't expect one inside a house to have much money inside.

I can think of several reasons not to use a coke machine but mostly its a bad idea. I would not put my guns in anything but my gun safe.

I think it is a good idea. I am of the opinion it is best to hide the guns in plain site. Everybody knows what is in a gun safe and with enough determination will get into it. Unless the word gets out to the criminal community to start looking for guns in soda machines why would they even think to look there.

I don't think this was really a replacement for a steel safe. This was more of a fun idea to store your guns instead of under your bed. Of course a real safe is going to be more secure.
